I searched teamliquid for a similar thread, and found many that were pokemon related, but none on this particular application. Basically, it allows you to play Pokemon Fire Red (Gen III) online. I was amazed to see how many people there was when I first logged in. The trade / global chat always active, a strong community, etc etc.
A lot of people tried and failed to create an online-based pokemon game, but this one seems to have a really good dev team and a well established player-base.
I would like to see if anyone on TL actually plays it or would like to play. My ID online is crbox, feel free to add me and chat ^.^
I've been sick for the past few days and I can't really get out of bed, so instead of playing SC2, I grind my pokemon
I've played Pokemmo for a few weeks but I stopped because of the difficulty of obtaining a competitive team without the usage of missing TM's/more tutors/breeding/pokemon, but the game itself has a great future ahead with the amount of players, dev support, and overall community - I just hope that Nintendo doesn't do something to stop it's progress T.T.
Glad somebody made a thread for this. I've been meaning too, but I am far too lazy.
Great game, getting better with each update. The MMO aspect changes the whole gaming experience, I thought I was a great master before I played this. I was wrong. Still in alpha but definitely worth a look if your a pokemon fan.
I played something like this, there were no animations or anything in it and very few others playing, but it was Fire Red. Got bored and left. I hear Nintendo has shut down at least one other Pokemon MMO, if this gets popular enough, it'll probably go too.
Pretty silly by nintendo imo. Copyright is copyright but the people who were playing fire red were going to do it on an emulator anyway and getting people back into playing pokemon can only help black/white v2 sales.

I don't think they are breaking copyright as silly as it sounds because they don't provide the ROM.
All the provide is the server structure.
Also if anyone care to answer before the trade happens
My side : Jolteon lvl 43 not ev trained (IV: 15, 2 (lol), 26, 23, 28, 21) so pretty good IV overall since attack doesn't matter really against Lvl 90 snorlax EV trained and Blissey not ev trained. Now I don't know their IV but I was told they were pretty good
Based on this should I trade, the guy is giving me some time to think about it. I love my Jolteon and was planning to use it, but I could surely trade snorlax and blissey later on
Hey guys - I started playing this a few days ago, and I'm really surprised not more TLers play it. The devs patch the game constantly, so while it's not perfect it's still something we all dreamed of as a kid - play an online Pokemon game where you can run around and can see/interact with other players.
Even if you have no plans to create a competitive team, this game is a huge nostalgia bomb for anyone in their 20s, and you should check it out if this sounds appealing at all. It is (for the most part) very similar to the original Red and Blue games, but with vastly updated graphics and UI. This means that most of the pokemon you see will be the original set, without having to learn the 600 or whatever are around today. (Back when I was a kid I briefly played Silver but never played beyond that.) Everything is also stored server-side, which lets you play with virtually no setup on any computer.
I'm "Sandes" in game. Let me know if anyone is playing.
I know it's gen 3, but I didn't know what that meant until later when looking up stuff. For guys like me who's only really played the original games, I was really relieved that I'm familiar with the pokemon/regions I'm encountering, even if a lot of game mechanics are changed.
Yeah im a gen1 nerd too, but there are something like 360 pokemon in PokeMMO / FR+LG. Not the 151 from Gen1 red+blue. The spawns in all locations are different too.
You are right though, gen1 is awesome and it is the same area, janto ftw.
Well if you haven't played in 12 years it doesn't matter if spawns slightly changed lol. And about halfway through the game I haven't really seen pokemon that I don't recognize, except from other players.
Honestly, for guys playing just for a trip down memory lane, the biggest noticeable difference is that Brock no longer does horrible, unspeakable things to Charmander. Misty still destroys him though.
That being said I'm in Saffron/Fuschia right now and really like the changes, both from FireRed and also from the client interface.

The game is awesome though, play it :3
Blue/Red aren't Gen1, they're Gen2, Gen 1 was never released in the states, it was original poke'mon blue released only in japan and buggy as shit! Then they took it updated it, changed it to red/green and released it in Japan. About that time they got together and renamed the green to Blue and released Red/Blue world wide.

I dont know why im "arguing" because we both think the game is awesome and are playing it just for the nostalgia bomb that is gen1. (Whatever weird pokemaniac above me, get back in dark cave plox.)
BUT.
There a shit-ton of new pokemon across the game, Like, Loads, Everywhere :D

But yeah pokemanz awesome go play
Yeah, I like the design of some of them, so I'll definitely pick them up after beating the game.
Right now Charizard and Vaporeon are doing work though. I'm REALLY glad I can skip trainers if I want.
